David Jones, operation manager, Office of Local Defense Community Cooperation explained the partnership between the Department of Defense and public schools serving military families started at Fort Riley when a parent asked a question about support to on-post schools to then Secretary of Defense, Robert Gates, who visited the installation in 2008. Morris Hill Elementary School opened in time for the start of the academic year. The official celebration and ribbon-cutting ceremony took place Sept. 22 at 1:30 p.m. Leaders from the Geary County Schools USD 475 school, Fort Riley and the Office of Local Defense Community Cooperation spoke about how the partnership between the installation, DOD and Geary County Schools USD 475 made the new school possible. Though open there is still another construction phase to complete that will allow the school to enroll about 590 students.
